Firstly, Zahra Schreiber, current girlfriend of Seth Rollins and NXT developmental talent, has been released for using Nazi symbolism while posting on social media.

And secondly, a man has been shot at WWE's Performance Centre over in Florida.

A twitter post made in 2012, while I agree she should be punished is it fair to fire someone for something that happened around 3 years ago, I dont condone what she did, anything to do Nazism is deplorable, unless there is something we dont know, whats wrong with a 2nd chance...

Hope all involved in the shooting is ok and no major harm is done

Just some guy who had an obsession with one of the Divas at the Performance Centre ended up getting shot by a Police Officer after reportedly trespassing on WWE Property, and not for the first time either from what I have read.

Dynamite Kid Documentary

To think what he was back in the day and what became of him

I think he could probably go into WWE's Hall of Fame as Benoit's surrogate.

Rumour has it, WWE are considering inducting either The Hart Foundation or a bunch of ex-Stampede (Stu Hart's promotion) wrestlers. Dyno could probably go in with them.

Gallows has already been on the main roster as Fake Kane, Festus and Luke Gallows respectively.

AJ may go straight to the main but I suspect he'll do a stint in developmental first.

Nakamura is a highly talented and charismatic worker. However his style is a little bit stiff, so I expect he'll undergo retraining into WWE style. 

Anderson will probably end up as a trainer at NXT. Don't really see him on the main roster to be honest.

7' giant goliath looks like a 7' fat hillbilly

Bram may have appeared on the old NXT format before it became a promotion in its own right. He was Konnor's initial tag-team partner in The Ascension before he was fired over a DUI. 

Based upon that fact that he used to wrestle and train in the area, I think Goliath may have been formerly known as Tron.

Well Mr Young...

I can tell you the EPW event was a load of Shite...

Comes to something when the highlight of the night was Mrs F falling through her chair...

She was hilarious...She had something to say about each wrestler

1 had a small package, another wore a t-shirt long enough to hide what he does not have...Another guy was so fat he had probably not have seen his willy for years...I can confirm Tokyo Joe is no more Japanese than I am...One of the tag teams looked like they barely had a pube between them and another bird looked like she was pregnant...

If Goliath the 7' Giant is actually 7' I am about 6'9"...Out of what I saw only Bram looks like he belongs in a ring

Load of shite, 2 hours of my life lost, time I wont ever get back

Bad events can be fun depending on the crowd (or whomever you go with) but, yeah, they are a detriment to the whole host of decent independent wrestling companies plying their trade in the UK.

Regrettably, once someone has paid their money and witnessed the kind of shite like you've described, one is left with the impression all wrestling promotions are like that!

I did not pay, I was given tickets by my mate who put a poster in his shop window...I could not be paid enough to watch them again...

Now, of course I know it is Entertainment, I can suspend disbelief(whatever the word is), I accept that, like I would when watching the soaps or a movie, but this was as fake as fake gets, it was plain to see that most kicks and punches made connection whatsoever and it stuck out like a sore thumb...The looked not much older than 14 or 15 and another looked she was barely out of school...

I found it to be a joke, but kids seemed to love it, with there (lack of) talent interacting with the kids...

I would say the tickets are worth 10p and now and not a penny more...I could probably train a Dog and Monkey to run a better show

Coming soon to the WWE Network...


http://www.wwe.com/wwenetwork/new-2016-p...ght-series
WWE Network continues to add to its already robust slate of original programming in 2016, with the newly green-lit show, Global Cruiserweight Series. This tournament brings together more than 30 of the greatest in-ring competitors at Full Sail University in Orlando, Fla., to vie for the right to call themselves the best cruiserweight in the world. Global Cruiserweight Series is set to premiere Wednesday, July 13 at 9 p.m. ET on the award-winning WWE Network.

Should be interesting whom WWE get to perform in this given their change in policy towards independent workers in general.

RE: Wrestling
Just finished watching NXT Takeover: Texas.

Very good show. If you like watching wrestling then you probably need to go out of the way to watch Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Sami Zayn. Easily a Match of the Year candidate in any promotion but the big match 'WWE' feel made it better. 

Some interesting close-ups of people in attendance including Kota Ibushi and TNA's  Bobby Roode.  

I can't see Wrestlemania topping that effort.

I can't remember Tatanka in it either. 

I like the timelapse at the start and end, building the arena up.

To be honest, I thought it was just Bret, Shawn, Undertaker, Razor and Macho involved.

Tatanka seems odd but, then again, WWE were pushing him at the time. However, the inclusion of The Big Boss Man is possibly odder, especially since as his last major televised appearance was at the Rumble earlier in the year. By the time Wrestlemania came around he had left the company. 

Hacksaw Jim Duggan was also an afterthought at this point and would leave the following year.

WWE Suspends Raymond Leppan and Ryan Parameter for Wellness Policy Violation

Of course nobody is going to miss either Adam Rose or Konnor from The Ascension, but this is apparently their second violation of WWE's wellness policy and both wrestlers have been handed a 60 day suspension notice.

Although I wasn't aware of their first wellness violation, I can't see either lasting the course of 2016. WWE's roster is quite large at the moment and could probably do with some trimming.
